Linux is the new "no true Scotsman" case apparently.
It's pretty much been the case that unless the vendor provides support it can be years before a device is truly supported, if ever. I'm sure Apple isn't exactly jumping at the chance to provide the necessary support to help out anyone who wants to install anything other than Mac approved OS changes.
Apple might not leak, but is it really surprising that any company is working on "the next version"?
What company in their right mind would put out a device and say "yep, I think we'll just stop developing anything further for the next 5 years while we sell this one."
The only thing that needs to be held under wraps is potential release dates.
Going to a nursing home and asking 90+ year old battleship gunners to test audio quality will lead to dubious results.
I don't have superman hearing. I have a Creative Labs card with Medusa NX 5.1 headphones. If you take my sound card away and force me to use on board audio, I'm going to cry like a little girl. On board audio is missing things like: bass redirection, crossover frequency contols, bass boost.
If you can't hear the clipping that occurs at high volume using on board audio, I don't know what to tell you. It's terrible.
How does Apple presenting an argument in a court case amount to "coming clean"? If they didn't make the arguments for keeping these sealed their oh-so-amazing case studies would be out.
That's not coming clean. That's standard legal babble.
Even though my only current option for TV is satellite and my ISP is capped at 600 MB/day, my wife and I have seriously talked about dropping our TV subscription.
It's not Netflix or internet content. It's just shitty TV.
I don't think many people realize that Android is Linux. Not one of the people I work with could tell you what version they have on their phones. The only thing they can tell you is which applications they can or can't get compared to the iPhone. Of the people that have the iPhone that I work with, one of them is a fanboi and the others can barely operate their own computers.
If MS can get their store in order and have decent hardware, they'll do just fine. You'll still have your Linux, everyone else will still be clueless, no matter what platform their phone runs.
I hate the text of photos. People should post the actual text and have a photo with it if necessary. But the text over photo is awful for a whole lot of reasons.
Or maybe she installed a program and it was bundled, like about a hundred other programs that can be installed via bundling. Just try and install a Java update without it asking to install a toolbar.
I'm still using my Creative Zen Vision M from 2005. I've never replaced anything in it, not even the battery. It's been in my car for the last 3 years in direct sunlight and freezing temperatures.
If it's built well, you shouldn't need to replace things. If you do need to replace things, you should be able to do so fairly easily. I don't know which category Apple really falls into. I don't own anything they sell.
Why do we let politicians write the text books, instead of having a quorum of people in their respective fields with masters degrees? Shouldn't the most educated in their respective fields have a say in what the younger generation is being taught, so they can be more prepared for higher education?
right... if you cannot even discuss basic flags or basic concepts, but can google, that's all that's needed to be a good competent programmer, right? Because good enough is good enough.
no wonder USA is losing its edge, with this kind of thinking.
It worked pretty well for some guy named Albert Einstein.

They stay because they are trained to. From what I've read, the engine room was still habitable. The sections of ship are designed to be isolable from each other. Close a door, shut some duct work to isolate air, and you're fat dumb and happy back in the engine room!
The point in sticking around is that is what we were trained to do. Fire would have a very hard time making it from the forward part of the ship to the engine room areas. Don't you feel safer, knowing that the reactor was being watched the entire time the fire was raging in the forward part of the ship?
Yes, there is a possibility this was bedding. Usually though, when you go into an overhaul like this, all the bedding is removed. The mattresses may or may not have been removed.
There is a lot of wiring that is bundled together around ships. There is also quite a bit of temporary equipment that is brought on the ships during overhauls like they were doing that could have been the source as well.
There is no "fire suppression system" as you might imagine. Normally all firefighting would have been taken care of by the 130 man crew. Portable extinguishers only go so far, and it seems that this was far beyond a few extinguishers.
I stood my fair share of watches in the engine room. I knew this day would come sooner or later. I'm sure that the nuclear operators stayed at their watch stations during all this. This is a hell of a way for the Miami to go out.

Around 2008, my local ISP was formed. Sometime around 2009 they implemented data caps of 600 MB/day, as most users didn't exceed that amount. Today, the cap is exactly the same as was first implemented.
300 GB might seem like a lot right now. Give it a few years...
1. that the data belongs to Harris under Twitterâ(TM)s terms of service, and handing it over would violate both those terms of service and the SCA.
2. it argues that handing over Harrisâ(TM)s data would violate the Fourth Amendmentâ(TM)s protections against searches without a warrant, which it argues applies even when the government is seeking information about allegedly public activities like a userâ(TM)s tweets.
3. it points out that Twitter is in California, and argues that the New York prosecutors need to make their case to a California court to obtain Twitterâ(TM)s data.
All seem like valid arguments to quash a subpoena to me.

Digital out is a different story all together.
That's the beauty of the iOS application process. They don't have to tell you why they disapproved it.
You're assuming that Apple will approve it.
"Hey guys...what units are we programming in again?"
I'd bet they had a giant banner on the wall that reminded them every day.

I believe this is what you were looking for.

1. It removes the ability to have a drop in spare (i.e. is not user replaceable.)
2. The "packaging" they refer to is also a vital part of the mechanical integrity of a battery. Mechanical integrity is kind of important.
3. Spraying a battery directly to the case of a device ensures that the full force of any mechanical shock is applied to the battery as well.
All of this together makes me believe that the only use this could have is for relatively small items that you do not intend to move around.
How do you start a second instance of the program (without going to the Start menu) if its icon gets swapped for its taskbar entry when you start it?
You right click the entry on the taskbar and select the program. It's the 3rd option up, just above 'close window' and 'unpin from taskbar'
I've never had to remap, nor have I had a problem with pressing it as a gamer. My trusty G11 has a physical switch that disables the key.

It has been said many times before.

We are approaching peak Human. See:

Peak Human doesn't address the damage done to the ecosystem though.

Then again, cheating is still cheating.
This is completely true. Every other type of power plant, including the coal plant that I work at, stores energy for later use.
We put the energy in pieces of coal that sit next to the power plant! When we need more power, we dump more of it into the boiler. It's that easy.

TFA gives some pretty compelling reasons.

I'm not quite 10x your UID but nearly double his :P
I don't recognize all the names. I'll have to be more mindful in the future.
